X 1 Swarmlord

Troops:

X 6 Hormagaunts (30 models each, 180 models total)


Heavy Support:

X2 Carnifexes: Chitin Thorns, Acid Maw, Thresher Scyrhe

Obviously this is meant to win with sheer weight of numbers.

So, most blatant first: tervs are 200+ pts of incredibly dead weight, since you only have horms. Even with terms, tervs are...quite expensive for what they do, which is not a lot. Taking neuro+broodlord and dropping the fexes as well opens up WWSWF as a strong secondary option, and gives some good hidden character options.

The fexes in general...just don't support your game plan. You're a swarm the board army...and then randomly two meh melee MCs.

Otherwise, gaunt carpet can be strong if you play the mission well (and if you don't mind moving 200+ models ).

Been playing carpet since mid 8th. Always comes back to it... Skip the terrys and fexes, don’t do enough. Add a Neurothrope and 2 Scythed. Is the hormagants what you have? Because termaguants do the job better and to a lower cost

Yup.
